After years of much discussion and consideration, the decision to bring a second daycare to McKenzie County has finally come to fruition. During its Aug. 2 meeting, the McKenzie County Commissioners approved $18 million for the construction of a second Wolf Pup Daycare facility in Watford City.
“We get calls every day, every single day,” says Tessa Moberg, director of Wolf Pup Daycare of parents calling looking for daycare for their chilren.
There’s no denying that there is a need for a new daycare in the county and with the commissioner’s recent decision, the project is now scheduled for completion by 2024. In the meantime, there will be the temporary accommodation of modular buildings that will open in the spring of 2023 as an alternative for children needing daycare.
